ScienceBlogs: Uncertain Principles

Edit title

My heartfelt thanks to you for your generosity. Words cannot adequately express to you how deeply grateful that I am to you for your gifts. I am so excited that I cannot sleep. When I told the children about the award they yelled, screamed, and whooped like a crowd at a sporting event. To see kids that excited about materials that will help them to create brought tears to my eyes. I am deeply moved by your kindness and generosity. To know that someone cares about my students enough to donate materials that will assist them with their learning makes me proud to have chosen the profession of teaching. My passion for learning and helping others learn will not cease as long as there are individuals like you who value kids, education, and learning. I hope to repay you by continuing to work hard to insure the continued success of each and every one of my students and I will pray that God blesses you richly for your unselfishness, kindness, and generosity. Peace and Blessings to you”

This is fabulous! I have to run over and tell my colleague about all the books we will be getting to help us with our writing instruction. Our students are currently working on pattern books, and many of these books will be useful for this style. They will be used as model texts in our two classrooms for years to come, and I am sure that the students' writing will benefit because of your generous donation! On behalf of our forty students, thank you!

Sincerely,

I cannot express to you how excited I am to have a class set of this novel. Just as I used it last year, I started teaching it this year by using the one copy I have and the age-old "popcorn" method of reading. The students are so engrossed by this book that they are more than half way through before they realize how much they have read. And, it gives them encouragement that they can read and it isn't boring. I cannot begin to express my gratitude for this gift of "How to Be a Successful Criminal" for use in the academic classroom. Without knowing it, you have just saved a good number of my students from a dark future by showing them someone cares enough to buy the books and by giving them the opportunity to see someone that started in the same route they live has become very successful on his own time. Thank you so much from the very bottom of my heart”

Wow! I am so grateful to have another proposal funded. My students take pleasure in reading and really enjoy having their own books. Having books to read at home is a luxury for many of the students in our school. Thank you, thank you and thank you again for supporting Donors Choose. We appreciate your support”

Thank you so much for your generous donation of a camera and photo software! My students are very excited about starting our media literacy unit and with the addition of your donation, the lessons will become more interesting and meaningful. Students learn by doing and with the new equipment, they will have that opportunity in this unit. Thank you so much. Your generosity means so much to me and my students”

Thank you for the Science World Subscription. In the past, this magazine has enabled my students to understand that there is Science everywhere and in everything we do. Every time I pull out old copies their faces light up with excitement. They love reading Science World, even if Science is not their favorite subject. Thank you for giving my students this gift and helping me integrate literacy and Science”

Thank you so much for your generous donation to our classroom. My students are truly becoming authors and illustrators this year! They love to write stories and publish their work. Your gift will help make this possible! Thank you for thinking of us. We truly appreciate you!

I know your donation is measurable by some dollar amount but the extent of its impact on my students will be very difficult to quantify. The gift of calculators you have generously donated will have an impact on me and my students far beyond its financial measure. In receiving this gift, I am very excited and also touched by your desire to give back. Thank you very much. We truly appreciate your support and generosity”

I am so excited that I recieved this grant for consumable science supplies! This will make a huge impact of my students learning experiences!

This years students are so curious about their surrounding world, and with these art supplies, and science kits, I will be able to expose them to a multitude of new and exciting learning experiences”

It is so delightful to be appreciated as an educator when someone believes in you with a monetary gift such as this one. The materials and resources that you are providing for our Mock Trial Team are greatly appreciated. I look forward to letting you know of our success in the regional competition. Again, thank you”
